I Never Wanted You To Go

from The Human Wilderness by Jeff Smith

lyrics

I Never Wanted You To Go

I carry your sweet voice
like it is a photograph
Whenever I look at it
I can almost hear you laugh

When I said some foolish things
now I want you to know
While it was so hard to show
No Matter what I said then
I never wanted you to go

Don't you know how I regret
Whenever I remember
Insignificant arguments
When I could not temper my temper

Well I've been feeling sorry for myself
Wondering if you'll ever come back
Writing letters and making calls
But the line is so tight can I have some slack

Oh baby I'm fight them off
These memories you left behind
You come to me in silent dreams
Running your fingers through my mind
